Monumental Sports & Entertainment’s new home solutions partnership arrived just one day after it launched Caps Gaming, an esports team set to compete in NHL 20.

Anne Ferguson, Vice President of Marketing at Alarm.com also commented: “We’re entering the next evolution of our long-standing relationship with Monumental Sports & Entertainment. The emerging universe of esports and the NBA 2K League is a natural fit for exposing legions of tech-savvy players and fans to Alarm.com.

“We’re always looking for ways to be front and center with people who may want to include Alarm.com in their daily lives or join a great team that’s creating the next generation of smarter home and business solutions. Aligning our brand with Wizards District Gaming creates unique opportunities to help us achieve those goals.”

Esports Insider says: Nothing about this partnership seems to raise an alarm, and bearing the excitement of both parties, it should set off some good collaborations with an established non-endemic company.
